John Barker, COO of Synergy Research Group, will lead a session at the Clinical Operations in Oncology conference, which will be held in Boston, MA, July 15—1 6, 2015. Barker will speak on clinical trials in Russia, giving insight into the current state of the industry in the region.

“I am very pleased to be participating in the Clinical Operations in Oncology conference,” said John Barker, COO of Synergy Research Group. “Russia has a number of advantages for pharmaceutical companies bringing products to market and I am excited to discuss these in my session.”
